WHITE 996 ALERT!! Quick, someone snatch this up and flip on BringAtrailer!
We’re going to be light on the details here (because typical Craigslist ad) but lets make the best of it. 2003 was the 2nd year for the updated/facelifted 996. The narrowbody base Carrera had underbody fittings for improved aerodynamics, front and rear bumpers were restyled, but most importantly Porsche gave the Carrera the Turbo’s updated headlights with standard bi-Xenon lamps (no more Boxster look!).
The wheels on this car are 18″ Carrera Lightweights. No indication of tire wear/condition from the seller.
The facelifted Carrera’s also got new engines. The original 3.4L M96/02 were all replaced by a single 3.6L M96/03 type producing 320 HP. These new engines also came with a new VariocamPlus system and a new DME that mimics the Turbos minus the boost control. Unfortunately, the M96/03 still suffers from the same IMS issues as the M96/02 and this seller does not indicate the IMS/RMS have been replaced.
The interior is finished in “Natural Brown” full leather (door cards and dash).
We’re going to be honest, the price is high, but it’s white (w/Natural Brown Full Leather), and in the spirit of this weeks crazy white 996.1 BAT sales price (linked above), we thought someone out there may be interested in this newer 996.2. Make sure you get eyes on the carfax and don’t forget that PPI! Make this 996 your #firstflatsix
